Overview

Even with well-designed parts with approved materials, many things can go wrong at the production stage. When first adopting the technology, companies either set up new, in-house AM facilities or outsource to AM service bureaus to produce their components.

In both cases, qualification by an independent third-party can prove to clients that they have appropriate processes in place.

Why work with us?

Independence

For more than 250 years, LR has stood as an independent third-party provider of professional services for engineering and technology. We both write our own rules and contribute to global codes and standards. Our goal is to improve safety and increase the performance of processes and compliance for our clients in more than 75 countries worldwide.

Technical expertise

LR has certified the first additively manufactured part for oil and gas, an innovative component that can only have been made through AM. You can read more about that here. In addition, we're involved in several joint industry projects with our industry partner, TWI. Each of LR's surveyors is trained and qualified in both traditional and additive manufacturing techniques.

Your business helps LR to help others

The profits we generate fund the Lloyd’s Register Foundation, a charity which supports science and engineering-related research, education and public engagement around everything we do. All of this helps us stand by the purpose that drives us every single day: Working together for a safer world.
